Jupiter is the largest planet so the Romans named it after the largest God the king of all the Gods Jupiter.
Galileo Galileio discovered Jupiter on Jan. 17th 1610 he discovered the planet Jupiter. Galilieo discovered this planet with a telescope. Galilieo looked through a telescope on the planet Earth to see Jupiter.
DISTANCES:
order from the sun: 5th planet from the sun
distance from the sun: 241 million km
distance from the earth: 576,682810 miles
Mass:
1.8987 * 10 the the power of 27 kilograms
Volume:
1.43 * 10 to the power of 15 km to the power of 3
Number of Days to orbit around the sun:
Once every 4,330.6 Earth days
Perihelion:
93 km miles
Equatorial Circumference:
449197 km
Mean Density:
1.33 cm ^3
Gravity:
254 lbs or be around 254% as heavy
Aphelion:
483.78 million miles away from the sun.
Length of one day:
about 9.9 hours
Planet Aperence:
Jupter's surface has a wide range of colors including white, orange, brown, yellow, and red. There is also a huge red spot on Jupiter known as the Great Spot. Jupiter has orange and white bands. the white bands are made from ammoniun hydrosulfide clouds. Jupiter has a solid surface all over.
Rings:
N/A
Satellite:
N/A
Composition:
Core Composition:
Jupiter has a liquid that consits of a liquid meatallic hydrogen.
Surface Composition:
Jupiter is a gass, there is no soild surface. This means that if one stepped onto the planet, he would sink into it and eventually get crushed by the massive increased pressure.
Atmosphere:
Major gases:
Hydrogen helium
Minior gases:
Methane, Ammonia, Hydrogen deteride, Ethane, and water
Surface Conditions:
Wind Speeds:
about 400 mph
Temperature Rages:
about 150degress fairenhieght
Surface Pressure:
Its pressure less than 1%
Weather:
The weather on Jupiter, like everything else about a planet is large. Storms that grow to cover thousands of ( km) within hours, winds shipping the clouds at 360 kph, and storms that last for hundreds of years are typical.
water:
Jupiter has some water vapor in its atmosphere, but the amount is negligible. On Jupiter;s moon Eurropa, much water is presental in the form of ice, Underneath the smooth surface of europa, could be and ocean of liquid water.
Exploration:
Pioneer 10 was lauched in the 1972 and flew within 81,00 miles ( 130,00 klm) of Jupiter on Dec. 3rd, 1973
Habitability:
As long as you didn't land or expose yourself to the atmosphere, nothing will happen. The planet has a great enough gravity that you will be squished into the boots of your space suti.
Future Human Travel:
The planet is gas so you cannot stand on it
Terraforming:
We would need a soild planet and there would need to be water and oxygen.
Cool Facts:
On Jupiter we could weigh 212.76 lbs. if we were 90 pounds.
List 3 neat fact about your planet:
1.) Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet in the Solar System
2.) The clouds in Jupiter are only 50 km thick.
3.) Jupiter's mangetic feild is 14 times as strong as Earth.
